==Economy== Lugo is a city of services. The main activities are commercial, the administration (offices of the autonomous and central Governments) and educational and health services (the recently opened ''Hospital Universitario Lucus Augusti'' is the largest in Galicia).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://media.lavozdegalicia.es/default/2010/10/26/03301288081021009363497/Fichero/hospital_lugo20101026.pdf |title=Lucus Augusti, uno de los grandes hospitales de Europa. La Voz de Galicia|access-date=26 March 2013}}</ref> The steady increase of population of the city has coincided with the development of the major economic sectors of the municipality. Industry is scarce and almost exclusively dedicated to the processing of agricultural products (dairy, meat, timber ...). The [[University of Santiago de Compostela]] has several faculties at its Lugo Campus, one of the most important being the Faculty of [[Veterinary]] sciences, one of the leading in its field in Spain. The daily newspaper {{Interlanguage link multi|El Progreso (Spain)|gl|3=El Progreso (xornal)|lt=El Progreso}},<ref>{{cite web|url=http://elprogreso.galiciae.com/ |title=elprogreso.galiciae.com |publisher=elprogreso.galiciae.com |access-date=11 November 2013}}</ref> is published in the city. It's the most read newspaper in the [[province of Lugo]]. There is a private [[aerodrome]] in the nearby town of Rozas, owned by the Spanish [[Ministry of Defence (Spain)|Ministry of Defence]] and administered by Real Aero Club de Lugo. In 2011, the Ministry of Defence transferred the installations to [[Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial|INTA]], Spain's [[space agency]], in order to convert it into a center of aeronautical research,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://elprogreso.galiciae.com/nova/82213.html |title=El Progreso - El aeródromo de Rozas será un centro nacional de investigación aeronáutica |publisher=Elprogreso.galiciae.com |date=27 March 2011 |access-date=6 July 2012}}</ref>
